Membership and Unit Renewal Resources
Membership Renewal and Unit Renewal are brand new for 2024. Unlike the previous annual “recharting” process, these two new processes are completely separate and serve different purposes. Membership renewal is now handled on a twelve-month cycle and no longer directly linked to a unit charter. Please review the information below carefully.
The District Executives are hosting Renewal “Office Hours”. There will be at least one District Executive in the Council Office every weekday that the office is open from 9am to 5pm until December 31st to offer assistance and answer any questions you might have. There are also additional hours where District Executives are available to help. The full schedule is available here. Check back periodically as the schedule is subject to change.
Membership Renewal
All Membership Terms are now from the month of registration to 12 months later. Scouting America no longer uses a pro-rated membership year.
All new youth and adult membership (or restarted after a lapse in membership) will start the month in which they register. For example, joining 8/3/2024 will mean your active membership year is 8/1/2024 to 7/31/2025. All members that renewed 12/31/2023 will have an annual 12/31 expiration date in the future.
Unit Renewal
In addition to completing the online Unit Renewal, each unit must complete and submit an Annual Unit Charter Agreement. The Annual Unit Charter Agreements have already been sent out over email to Committee Chairs and Charter Organization Representatives via AdobeSign. If you need assistance with or have questions about the Annual Unit Charter Agreements, please contact your District Executive.
After completing the online Unit Renewal and Annual Unit Charter Agreement, review the appropriate Journey To Excellence and Commissioner Challenge forms for your unit with your Unit Commissioner. Once signed and complete, please submit to your District Executive.
